not homemade, but Walden Farms has ZERO calories and many flavors. I buy from Walmart0

I don't like to use artificial sweeteners but make an exception for dressing. I use any Italian and sprinkle on a pack of Stevie in the raw. At home or eating out. Love the sweet Italian dressings.0

I looove those tangy Greek salads you usually find at a pizza place. Ran across a recipe online a while back, and it's now a staple at my house: Shake all this up in a mason jar, no need for refrigeration.
1/2 cup olive oil
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1-1/4 tsp garlic powder
1-1/4 tsp dried basil
1-1/4 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp dijon mustard
I like my salad with cucumber, red onion, pepperoncini, kalamata olives, and a little feta cheese.... and sometimes grilled chicken too.

Here are a couple of salad dressings with lower oil content than traditional vinaigrette (3 parts oil to 1 part vinegar or lemon).
Generic Asian: 1 part soy sauce, 1 part balsamic vinegar, 1 part sesame or hazelnut oil
Ranch: Buttermilk, garlic powder, salt & pepper, a little mayo and a little sour cream.
Vietnamese or Thai: Fish sauce, sugar, lime juice, garlic, chilli.1 -
Great ideas! Without doing the trial & error thing myself, does anyone have a version of blue cheese dressing that they like?
Not homemade but this one is my favorite: https://www.litehousefoods.com/products/opa-litehouse-blue-cheese-dressing

My favourite creamy salad dressing ingredient is light tahini. Delicious!
I usually mix it with lemon juice and a touch of olive oil, salt, pepper and sometimes I add sumac as well. So so good on roast vegetables, kale or chickpeas. Also a great addition to anything involving lamb. Just be careful because tahini is kinda high cal.
I also second the Vietnamese style dressing with fish sauce and lime. YUM.0
